I've just noticed what I thought was a bit of dirt in the corner of Bo's eye is in fact blood. Not much. And just below his eye, towards his nose is a little cut about 1/4" long. About 1/4" from his eye!
Looks like he nearly lost an eye today!

Have you cleaned the cut? Infection that close to the eye is bad.

Apologies if you know this already, but always use clean boiled and cooled water, and only use the cotton wool once before discarding, wipe away from the eye every time. Stripe is always fighting, I have to do this for him several times a year.  |

ooh dear, I hope he's alright Sleepy. Cats are tough I know but that's a bit too close to his eye. Silly cat - has he been fighting?

How's Bo Sleepy - he could have scratched himself while clambering through some undergrowth. He's fine thanks The witch. I think he stayed in last night. Gone out this morning mind you. But his scratch is showing no signs of infection. He'll be OK I think  |

He sounds like he'll be OK - let's just hope he isn't scrapping with some new kid on the block.....or there may be a few more scratches to tend to 'til they've sorted their differences. |
